Hello.
So i recently got my new cpu and thought: Why not try some 720p fps streaming.

My setup:
CPU: i7-3770k
GPU: 670 gtx
16 GB DDR3
SSD OCV Vertex 4 256GB

So except the fact that's only a 720p stream, the stream still look unpleasant to watch.
Example: http://de.twitch.tv/seriouslycasualtv/b/394285747 Better mute sound! :p

this is the result of : faster + quality 6 + 3600 bitrate. 4000 bitrate is not possible for me, because my upload varys from 4,5 to 5 bm/s. So with 4000 bitrate there would only be 0,5 mb/s left for the game itself and other stuff.

example of stream:
http://de.twitch.tv/seriouslycasualtv/b/394319191
looks pretty much the same

How big is the potential of improving this quallity with a capture card?

I'ts not the same the stream looks much better during motion (check the mini map edge for example)
Try this build (64 bit if possible) and use lanczos downscaling filter from the video options to get your 720p to look sharper overall

it looks quite decent, but what confuses me a little is: even though the highest load my cpu got was around 68% on one core, the fps of my game droppen quite heavy. :/

edith: played same boss without stream, got arround 10 fps more. So it is not that big of a difference.

Might be a harder game on your gpu lower the graphics a bit.. and also you dropped some frames on obs.. change the server from Frankfurt since it's a known unstable server.

So i tryed a different server instead of Frankfurt. Best option available was Amsterdam. Sadly my upload to Amsterdam was very unstable, so i switched back to Frankfurt.

As always here is the past broadcast:
http://de.twitch.tv/seriouslycasualtv/b/395117106
I realy need to find an option to mute teamspeak for the stream, without muteing TS for myself.

Any help is welcome ;)

ps.:3800 bitrate is the highest possible for me, because of my internet.
pss.:If further improvement is only possible by improving my hardware, for example overclocking the cpu, please say that too.

I hope you can understand my mediocre english :p
